Treatment of Plasmodium falciparum merozoites with the protease inhibitor E64 and mechanical filtration increases their susceptibility to complement activation
Plasmodium falciparum malaria killed 451,000 people in 2017. Merozoites, the stage of the parasite that invades RBCs, are a logical target for vaccine development. Treatment with the protease inhibitor E64 followed by filtration through a 1.2 μm filter is being used to purify merozoites for immunolo...
